Finishing the Port Side Planking – Episode 170 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
The last plank... for now, anyway. This episode doesn't feature the whiskey plank, and Steve does a very good explanation for those who have been asking about the difference between a shutter plank and a whiskey plank. We've got four shutters, and like all boats, one whiskey, which is stil...
Salt & Tar: Ep.147- Trim and Treats
Home sweet home. The interior is coming together and thanks to Jack's help a few extra treats are added. Light inside our hatches, a charging station at the table for editing, AND he says I'll even be able to have a blow dryer! Thanks for watching everyone! ~Ruthie p.s. if you’re near t...
Arabella Gets a Makeover – Episode 169 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
As we've been finishing the rest of the planking on the port side, we have had groups of helpers lend a hand to clean up Arabella's interior. Most recently, David and his son, Grant, card-scraped the interior and applied Danish Teak Sealer to planks and frames. Boy, what a difference this ...

Port Side Sheer Strake – Episode 168 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
The weather our here in western Massachusetts has been a bit wacky. Though colder days pushed off the possibility of gluing early in the season, we're now dealing with really hot days and thunderstorms—but that's not slowing us down as we scoot along planking on the port side of Arabella. ...
Salt & Tar: Ep.145- Got Our Boom Back

Bracing for the Sheer Plank – Episode 167 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
Getting the nib-ends of these full-length planks fitted into the rabbet fore and aft is one of the hardest tasks of planking Arabella. Since we don't have any wiggle room to move fore or aft, the cuts need to be dead-on for the planks to sit correctly. Additionally, since shutter planks are san...

Installing the Oak Shutter Planks – Episode 166 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
It's a big moment here in the Acorn to Arabella boathouse. We have been steadily working on closing up the hull and now the oak shutters are going in. After these are installed, we will only have six more planks to go. Two cedar strakes will lead up to the final black locust sheer strakes. Rig...

Wrapping Up the Mizzen Mast – Episode 165 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
The mizzen mast has been tandem project as the planking has progressed. Alix chipped away at it between other important tasks, and now it's finally finished! Of course, the hounds and hardware need to be installed, but this big, beautiful, repurposed piece of Victoria's past and Arabella&#...
Salt & Tar: Ep.142- Sliding Galley Doors
A window into a typical day for us. Garrett's Dad was visiting, one of Swab's favorite humans, and he and Swab contemplated life and the meaning of it all while casting a line. Garrett messed around with a few projects. The spigot replacement was a success and we can finally permanently cl...
Closing in on the Shutter Planks – Episode 164 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
The gaps in Arabella's planking are getting much smaller... and soon they will be no more. We are pushing hard to close up the hull with Carolyn's help before she moves on. The shutter planks are a pretty exciting part of the build. There are only two of them, and they need to be perfec...

Mizzen Mast: Shaping Below Deck – Episode 163 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
The planking work is moving right along, but unfortunately Jack and Wes have to head home.

Alix has been working on spot repairs with graving pieces, as well as shaping the base of the m...
Salt & Tar: Ep.140- Rounding a Corner
Ruth gets behind the power tools. Thanks to Noé, our volunteer, he can take the time to learn me a thing or two. So much of the build has been REALLY important that I’ve not wanted to “mess” it up and Garrett’s been so busy I haven’t asked him to teach me. I feel like I’m at a place where I can star...
They’re Back! – Episode 162 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
Jack and Wes are back to do more work on Arabella. Wes's earlier visits involved stacking lumber and bending frames. Now he's back for a taste of planking and we hope he returns to help out with the interior. Jack was a part of our planking crew last year, specifically helping with some of...

With a Little Help From Our Friends—Episode 161—Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
We're back to planking! We've asked some of our skilled friends to come back and help us get closer to closing up Arabella's hull. We have eight oak planks, a couple of cedar planks, and the black locust sheer strakes remaining for installation. After the remainder of the oak planks a...

Putting Taper in the Mast – Episode 160 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
Lots going on here at the boathouse. It's time to put the taper in the top of the mast. Turns out there's a little bit more to that than just doing a straight taper. We'll be talking about a certain kind of taper as well as figuring out how to accommodate the slip of the router in ...
